is there another NFL Coach ever done more with less?
Pete Carroll is borderline HOF. If the hawks make another SB I think Pete should be in.
In 2000, Bill Belichick inherited a team with Drew Bledsoe,
Ty Law,
Damien Woody,
Tebucky Jones, Willie McGinest, Terry Glenn,
Tedy Bruschi, Lawyer Milloy,
Kevin Faulk, Ted Johnson,
Troy Brown; all of whom were a part of
at least the
Patriots first championship.
In 2006, Dungy...won a Super Bowl with the
Indianapolis Colts. He took over that team in 2002, when they already had Peyton Manning,
Marvin Harrison,
Tarik Glenn,
Reggie Wayne, and Jeff Saturday; those five players also happened to be
the only five players to make the Pro Bowl in the year that Indy won the Super Bowl.
Of course, Mike Tomlin inherited most of Bill Cowher's team and won a Super Bowl in his second season. Like coaches before him in San Francisco and Dallas, Tomlin was given the rare opportunity to take over a championship team from a head coach that was just tired of the daily grind, rather than taking over a mess of a franchise like Seattle was in 2010.
Pete Carroll won a Super Bowl despite the fact that the only players on the team that were drafted by Mike Holmgren or Jim Mora were Max Unger (2nd), Brandon Mebane (3rd), and Red Bryant (4th) and Punter Jon Ryan.

“… the greatest detractor from high performance is fear: fear that you are not prepared, fear that you are in over your head, fear that you are not worthy, and ultimately, fear of failure. If you can eliminate that fear—not through arrogance or just wishing difficulties away, but through hard work and preparation—you will put yourself in an incredibly powerful position to take on the challenges you face" - Pete Carroll.
